Custom New Build for Sale in Durango, Co

Description

This extraordinary custom home was completed in 2023, and was built with attention to energy efficiency and comfort. The builders take pride in knowing that the extra time and money spent on insulation translates into more efficient interior climate control. The perimeter walls have two-inch close-cell spray foam with additional batt insulation. The exterior is wrapped with a one-inch foam board under the stucco, and the attic is blanketed in R50 blown insulation. In-floor radiant heating maintains the interior climate, resulting in consistent temperature throughout the home. The high-efficiency Navien combo on-demand boiler allows for lower heating costs. The house sits at the end of a cul-de-sac high in the neighborhood with a large concrete driveway. The garage has two 10-foot-wide doors to accommodate modern vehicles. The interior open-concept living space features an extra-large kitchen island and Thermador cooking range to create a welcoming space for friends and family. A separate sidewalk leads you to an in-home office with a large window to gaze at the La Plata Mountains. This room could serve as a fourth bedroom. The La Plata mountain views on the back of the house are preserved by US Forest Service property, where hay is grown in the summer, and the working horses are pastured in the winter. You will enjoy watching the animals race across the field! All 19 homes in this neighborhood have water rights, which are pooled to create a pressurized irrigation system to maintain the lush landscape. The common area has a large pond that serves as a water reservoir and a source of recreation. This peaceful country living with dark night skies is only 7 miles to downtown Durango, 8 miles to the airport, and 4 miles to the hospital. Schedule a showing today!
